Vivek Anand Oberoi starts fundraiser to provide food for over 3000 underprivileged children battling cancer
We all know how Vivek Anand Oberoi has been doing humanitarian work for over two decades consistently. Vivek has sponsored hundreds of free heart surgeries for poor children. He has saved more than 2.5 lakh, underprivileged kids, from cancer. He has saved over 2200 little girls from child prostitution, of whom over 50 are studying abroad today on scholarships. Also, he went ahead and donated the money earned from his first movie Company towards the heart surgery of an underprivileged young girl.
Now, Vivek is on a mission to help the Cancer Patient’s Aid Association (CPAA) and its food bank to provide food to over 3000 cancer patients and their families for the next 3 months. He has been doing whatever is possible from his own end. But, he needs your help now. The actor has gone on social media, a little while ago, to urge people from all walks of life to come forward and contribute as much as possible to his fundraiser. Check out the video right here:

Vivek urges people to contribute as much as they’re capable of. A contribution of Rs 1000 can help CPAA’s food bank provide an entire month’s food to a child fighting cancer and their family. No donation is a small donation and every rupee counts.
There are parents of cancer stricken kids that spoke to Vivek who are starving for over 3 days just so they can provide maximum nutrition and immunity possible for their kid fighting cancer. As the human body’s immunity is low after the Chemotherapy sessions, a child needs proper nutrition to recover. Vivek is trying to ensure that such kids never go hungry and their parents don’t have to starve just to provide their kids the necessary nutrition.
Vivek concludes by sharing a very important message. “These people are already fighting cancer, let’s ensure that they don’t have to fight hunger,” ends Vivek. Let’s all come together and help each other out in these trying times.
